Chapter VII The Situation in the Southwest

During the Taizu period, many prisoners were sent to do things, and the Yellow Book was the responsibility of the prisoners. Every ten years, Nanjing Guozijian has to send a group of people to do this.

In fact, Zhu Qizhen secretly mixed a lot of private goods.

Whether it is clearing the land or compiling the yellow book, it requires a little technical content.

And several colleges established by Zhu Qizhen stipulate that arithmetic is a compulsory course, so in this regard, Zhu Qizhen feels that these students are better than officials from Jinshi.

This is also a foreshadowing to improve the status of each college.

Although Zhu Qizhen was mixed with private goods, it was Li Xian who presided over it overall.

Li Xian established two principles, one is not to blame the past, and the other is to clear the situation from the north to the south, province by province.

The past is not to blame, that is, no matter how ridiculous it was before, it was regarded as invisible, and the responsibility was not pursued, but from now on, it is prepared for the new Yellow Book.

From north to south, the province is clear, this is also because the capital of the Ming Dynasty is in Beijing, and a problem inevitably arises, that is, the Ming Dynasty's ability to control the northern provinces is better than the ability to control the south.

The ability of the Jingshi to control the local area decreases as the local area is farther away from Beijing.

The province with the strongest control ability in Jingshi is none other than Zhili Province, that is, Hebei Province, so Qingzhang started from Hebei.

Li Xian wants to carry this thing forward smoothly.

Last year, the Qingzhang of Zhili Province had ended, and there were more than 100,000 people, some of whom fled from the south, and naturally some of them were more people who had just become adults.

Children who are too young never ascend the throne at the imperial court. Without him, the rate of infant mortality in ancient times was quite high.

Li Xian said: "This year, the minister wants to clear the four provinces of Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, and Shandong together. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Is there enough manpower? ”

Li Xian said: "It's enough, the land clearance foundation of Zhili Province is good, so it ends early, but it's not easy to say about other provinces, the minister wants them to reach a shelf first, and after the imperial examination next year, they can send out all the new science and technology scholars." We will strive to complete the clearing of the interior within three to five years. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Just do what Mr. wants." ”

Zhu Qizhen has always known how to do this in a specific matter. He has never been able to compare with the old fritters in the cabinet.

However, Zhu Qizhen doesn't seem to care, but it's not that he really doesn't pay attention.

He sent a lot of Jinyi guards to participate in it, and every month Jinyi Wei would gather information. Zhu Qizhen used this information to learn more about what the bottom of the Ming Dynasty looked like.

At this moment, Zhu Qizhen suddenly thought of one point, that is, the prince had been in the northwest for a while, or he should be added to the Qingzhang group. Sharpen it too.

Zhu Jianjun didn't know that he had another hard life

It's time to get started.

Li Xian said the next thing again, and said: "The thieves in Guangxi have been fighting many times, and the officials are impeaching Han Yong for using troops unfavorably, and Hou Dagou even crossed the border to attack Guangdong? The official thought that he had been replaced. What does Your Majesty think? ”

Zhu Qizhen pondered for a while, and did not answer directly, but asked Li Xian: "What does Mr. think?" ”

Li Xian said: "Han Yong is a cadre, and the minister has read his "Ping Yao Ce", which shows that he wants to seek long-term peace and stability. It's just that now there is a lot of affection, and Your Majesty should protect one or two. ”

"Preserve one or two." Zhu Qizhen chewed on the word carefully.

This word is really a panacea, and it can be used up and down.

Maintaining Han Yong can also be said to be safe, and taking Han Yong can also be said to be preserved.

seems to have said an opinion, but in fact, he kicked the ball to Zhu Qizhen's side again.

This is what Zhu Qizhen has to face in this position, he will most likely not hear the truth, Li Xian obviously wants to see Zhu Qizhen express his position first, and then express his opinion. It is almost the same as when some ministers go to court and have two completely different books in their hands, one for something and the other for something.

It's just looking at the direction of the wind.

In fact, Li Xian is already good. is still relatively able to adhere to principles, but in some specific matters, Li Xian still does not dare to easily contradict Zhu Qizhen.

Zhu Qizhen also knew that if he kicked around like this, there would be no need to get down to business.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Attacking the heart is the top, attacking the city is the bottom, the mountains and forests are dense all over Guangxi, and if you want to maintain long-term peace and stability, you must not build roads and counties, and this matter must not be urgent." Han Yong did a good job. ”

Li Xian said: "Your Majesty trusts Han Yong, if Han Yong knows, he will definitely repay His Majesty's kindness." ”

Zhu Qizhen didn't care about this, the reason why he didn't want to move Han Yong was that under Han Yong's command, some guards in the south had already been revoked.

In this matter, Han Yong knows Zhu Qizhen's heart.

"There is just one thing, Your Majesty still needs to know." Li Xian said: "Han Yong's mother is very sick. ”

Zhu Qizhen was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered the Ding Wei system.

It is because of the Ding Wei system that Zhu Qizhen specially arranged a task for the local Jinyi guards, that is, the health of the parents of all the members of the imperial court is also one of the contents of their monthly report to the imperial court.

However, Han Yong's mother's situation is different from that of other ministers.

Because Han Yong's ancestral home is Changzhou, but he was moved to Beijing by the imperial court during the Yongle period, and his current home is in Wanping County, Li Xian will know after a little inquiry.

Of course, Li Xian didn't pay attention to this all the time, and it was only after seeing Jinyiwei's report that he instructed the people below to inquire about it, and he knew about Han Yong's mother's situation.

Zhu Qizhen also knew that Han Yong was around forty years old, and he was the governor of Liangguang, which can be said to be young and promising, and it can be said that he has qualifications

shallow, not to mention being criticized by many people now.

Unless Zhu Qizhen wants to ruin Han Yong, it is absolutely impossible to win love.

In other words, if his mother dies of illness, then the replacement of the governor of Liangguang is inevitable.

Zhu Qizhen immediately said: "Summoning the Tai Hospital, let them go to the Han Mansion to treat the old lady immediately, and bring me the pulse case to see." ”

Most of the ancient scholars were proficient in medicine.

It is because of the monarchs and ministers used in traditional Chinese medicine, the five elements of yin and yang, this set of ideas and theories, the doctors are very familiar with twisting, and the same at the philosophical level, it is easy to understand Chinese medicine. It's not difficult to learn.

Under Zhu Qizhen's years of cultivation, he can also understand a thing or two.

Of course, there must be an interpretation of the imperial doctor, Zhu Qizhen wants to know how long this old lady Han can support, and this is related to what to do about the situation in Guangxi.

Even if it really doesn't work, Zhu Qizhen has to let his son go back to Beijing in advance to see him for the last time, after all, Han Yong hasn't been home in Liangguang for several years.

You can't be too unkind.

Zhu Qizhen secretly said in his heart: "Unlucky." ”

Li Xian immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Guangxi thieves have entered and exited Guizhou once or twice, and now the Li thieves are causing trouble in Xiangxi, although Xiang Zhong has promised that it is impossible for the Li thieves to enter the Hunan region. ”

"It's just that the minister is worried that the Li thief has entered Guizhou, and the minister thinks that the imperial court should prepare in advance."

Zhu Qizhen said: "What do you mean? ”

Li Xian said: "Dismiss Xiang Zhong as the governor of Huguang, let the political envoy of Huguang take over, and order Xiang Zhong to lead Huguang and Guizhou soldiers to exterminate Li thief." ”

Zhu Qizhen secretly said in his heart: "It's exactly what I want." ”

Zhu Qizhen also had some expectations for this, and said: "According to Mr. Xiangzhong's opinion, Ren Xiangzhong is the governor of Hugui." ”

Although Zhu Qizhen has appointed the governor of Liangguang, the governor of the three sides, the governor of the northeast, and now there is a governor of Hugui, he has always set up a special governor for the governor, and he has set it up when there is something to do, and he has nothing to do.

This is a matter of principle.

Zhu Qizhen felt uneasy again, and said: "Transfer a battalion from the Beijing camp and go to Huguang to serve. ”

Li Xian said: "The minister obeys the order. ”

At this time, Li Xian turned the topic to the main topic and said: "The rebellion of the White Lotus Sect, although it is a deliberate plan of this generation, there are also ministers who are not in charge, and I ask Your Majesty to punish them. ”

Zhu Qizhen secretly said in his heart: "It's finally here." He had been waiting for Li Xian to take the initiative to talk about this for a long time.

It seems that the monarch and the minister are intimate, but in fact, they are all in confrontation with each other. Li Xian spoke first, which meant that he lost first.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Why does Mr. need to be like this? How is this the fault of the gentleman? ”

Li Xian said: "Your Majesty Xie is relieved, but how dare I deceive my heart, this matter must be settled." ”
